State Pastoral Office.

In recent days, Liu Biao has been in a good mood, first pulled thousands of Chu paper from Huang Chengyan's house, including 100 pieces of high-grade Chu paper and 900 pieces of medium Chu paper, he took 10 pieces of high-grade Chu paper, and 100 pieces of medium Chu paper and sent them to Xu Du, and gave them to the son of tomorrow to ask for merit for Huang Yueying, which is also his political achievement and his reputation.

A few days ago, the Chu paper shop opened, the scene was hot, although the price of Chu paper was not high, but the output was insufficient, it was difficult to find a piece of paper, and he still had about 900 Chu paper, so he invited his subordinates to come to enjoy the flowers and compose poems, show off some stock, look at the envy in the eyes of the subordinate officials, and also ten pieces of Chu paper and ten pieces of Chu paper, which attracted a lot of people's hearts.

Although Kuai, Cai, and Pang didn't need him to be encircled, after all, they also took some Chu paper from Huang Chengyan, but they couldn't help that there were not many of them, and there were only 100 sheets for each family, and they also begged him every day, which made him feel a little proud and very happy.

"Husband, put on a cloak, it's as cold as today." Looking at Liu Biao, who was standing under the eaves and admiring the snow, Mrs. Cai was holding a fur collar cloak in her hand and wanted to add it to Liu Biao.

"Thank you, ma'am." Liu Biao did not refuse, but held Mrs. Cai's hand, "These days, Mrs. has worked hard." ”

"It's not hard." Mrs. Cai smiled, letting Liu Biao hold her hand, her eyes were like water, "However, it is true that thanks to the paper made by Achu, in the coming year, there should be greater achievements." ”

"Yes, Achu has been smart since he was a child, and now he is even more famous, when the will of the Son of Heaven comes down, I am afraid that the person who proposes his relatives will break the threshold of Chengyan's family." Liu Biao smiled, "It's a pity that Qi'er has already got married, but Cong'er, now that there are eight out of ten, it's time to consider starting a family." ”

The smile on Mrs. Cai's face remained unchanged, and then she said, "I'm afraid that my sister still wants to stay in Achu for a few more years, and ah, Cong'er already has a crush." ”

"Oh?" Liu Biao was surprised.

"It's Brother Mao's little daughter, Ah Ning." Mrs. Cai spoke, "Ah Ning is now fifteen, the two children are the same age, and they have a good impression of each other, I, as a mother and aunt, see it in my eyes." I don't care about you, who is a father and uncle. ”

Liu Biao hurriedly smiled and apologized, "That's okay, at that time, Mrs., you will discuss with Deju, so that the two families will be close to each other." ”

In Liu Biao's opinion, the eldest son Liu Qi is like him, but he is old and not close to Mrs. Cai, and the second son Liu Cong was only eleven or twelve years old when Cai married him, and he was much closer to Mrs. Cai, and it is normal for Mrs. Cai to care more.

"That's what the husband said." Mrs. Cai also nodded, "Then before the age of the year, I will ask my brother." ”

"Okay."

……

Xiangyang, Chu paper shop.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, it's snowing now, look at us we've been waiting for a long time, let's sell us more! I'll have enough money with you! A young man bowed his hand to Zhou Yang, a little helpless.

He lined up, and he was lined up outside the hundreds, and the one in front of him bought it, but he couldn't buy it, which made him very entangled in his heart, so he had to beg for paper.

"Yes, Shopkeeper Zhou! We also know that the output of Chu paper is still insufficient, but I don't want to queue up again tomorrow! And another man spoke, and it was ...... It's hard to find.

At first, they heard the name of Chu paper, and they were mostly suspicious in their hearts, but when Chu paper was spread, there was no doubt, indeed, Chu paper is much better than Cai Hou paper, and the important thing is that the price is much cheaper than Cai Hou paper!

Can...... It's hard to find!

"That's right, Shopkeeper Zhou! You'll be able to sell a few more places! ”

"I've been waiting for a long time in the cold wind!"

"Yes, Shopkeeper Zhou!"

Zhou Yang looked at the group of people outside, and he was no longer surprised. The shop has been open for five days, and no one can buy it every day, and he really can't help it, who doesn't want to make more money?

When he came, he brought about 5,000 pieces of Chu paper, but now only half of them are left, and the follow-up has not yet been delivered! He doesn't dare to call the shots!

It's snowing, it's cold, it's really cold, that's no way!

"Ladies and gentlemen, the inventory is really insufficient, you can only ask for early tomorrow!" Zhou Yang still refused.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, it's been five days in a row, and I've been in line for five days!"

"Exactly! We also know that the production is insufficient, but can't the shopkeeper see our sincerity? It's a price increase, and we can accept it! ”

"That's right!"

Listening to these words, Zhou Yang was even more helpless, in the past few days, some people have been speculating on the price of Chu paper, some people come to line up every day, and when the paper is in hand, it will be sold when it is in hand, and fifty yuan will become one hundred yuan, or even more.

But he was a domestic servant, and he couldn't stop it.

Among these people, the first few are indeed scholars, and he didn't buy paper, so he also felt quite pitiful, but the latter ones were speculators he was already familiar with!

At this moment, a carriage came up to the shop, saying that it was a carriage, but wooden planks were added around it, except for a gray curtain in front of it, which looked like a moving house.

After a while, the curtain was lifted, but a delicate young man came out with his head, his eyes were transparent, his facial features were handsome, he was dressed in a blue straight jacket and trousers, and he was wearing a white fur coat outside.

"Uncle Zhou, it's not easy to get cold, so today you will add fifty more people." The little boy looked at Zhou Yang at the door and said loudly.

Zhou Yang looked at Huang Yueying's dress, opened his mouth, and then nodded, "No." ”

Hearing these words, the dozens of people who still refused to disperse at the door were overjoyed and thanked them again and again.

"Thank you, Xiaolang-kun!"

"Thank you, Xiaolang-kun!"

"Dare to ask Xiao Langjun's name?"

"Under the surname Huang, the single name is a Chu character, a person from Chuyang." Huang Yueying also arched her hand to everyone.

As for her, that is, Jing Ji thought about it, and estimated that the paper brought by Zhou Yang could only be sold for eight or nine days, and then she had to order someone to send the paper over anyway, so she lied to her old father, saying that she would dress up as a man on the road, and the latter had to agree. Although the old mother did not agree, after seeing the modified carriage, she did not object.

Then, he went to the county magistrate and invited a team of officials to help escort him.

She took Huang Cong and her father Huang Zhi on the road together, originally, this batch of Chu paper was escorted by Huang Zhi, but she had to add it.

"But it's the same clan as Chengyan Gong?"

"Exactly."

"Thank you, Xiaolangjun! If Xiao Langjun returns to the clan, please inform the little lady of the Huang family for us, and thank her for making Chu paper for the benefit of the world. ”

"Yes, please tell us about it."

A serious reader, who bought paper for his own use, was not in a hurry to buy paper at this time, but asked Huang Yueying to convey this thanks, a little ...... Honesty.

Others, who were not readers, crowded into the store.

Huang Yueying nodded to herself, "You should buy the paper first, and go home early after buying, it's cold, and it's not worth it if it's frozen." ”

"Thank you Xiao Langjun for reminding me."

"Thank you."

Huang Yueying also stopped talking and looked at Huang Zhi, "Uncle, first ask the guards to have some tea and something to warm up." ”

Huang Zhi nodded and went to make arrangements.

Huang Yueying looked at the group of people who left, and knew that they Huangjiazhuang also had to have some guards, otherwise they would bother the people in the public door again and again, although Liu Biao would not say anything if he knew, but it would be trouble after all.

Besides, through the fourth article of the canon: power comes out of the barrel of a gun.

The Huang clan in Chuyang is a scholar clan, but after all, it has only been established for forty years, and it is not as rich as the Huang clan in Xiangyang, there are not many slaves, and she has never thought about forming guards before, but she will have to do more and more things in the future, and it is imperative to recruit guards.

However, we will have to wait until next year, and now it is the end of the year.

"Sister......" Huang Cong also ran out of the carriage, and was about to shout, but was glared at by the latter's eyes, "Uh...... Brother. ”

Well, it's indeed a "brother", and my sister's dress really doesn't show any problems, at least, it's similar to the other brothers in the clan, and even the voice is very similar.

Huang Yueying nodded, "What's wrong?" ”

"I'm hungry too." Huang Cong touched his stomach, and his little face was full of sadness.

Huang Yueying smiled, too, in the stage of growing her body, it is normal to be hungry quickly, "Don't worry, when this group of people finishes buying, move the Chu paper in, and then ask Uncle Zhou to help find a place to eat." ”

"Okay." Huang Cong was happy, he thought that his sister had forgotten him.

Huang Yueying didn't care, but slowly looked at Xiangyang City today, there is still residual snow on the street, but it doesn't affect walking, this shop is located next to the main road in Dongshi, so the passenger flow is good, but it is snowing today, there are few people on the street, only Chu paper shop has more outsiders.

The two shops next to this shop have been emptied, after all, after Cai Mao gave it to her, the original manpower was withdrawn. She came this time, mainly to see the two shops, and when she got out of the carriage, Huang Cong followed closely.

However, the doors of the other two shops are still locked, and they have to wait for Zhou Yang to finish his work.

Not long after, the person who bought the paper said hello to Huang Yueying even if he left.

"Xiao Langjun, I'll say goodbye first, thank you so much today!"

"Xiao Langjun is in the dust, it's better to rest early!"

"Thank you, Xiaolang-kun."

Huang Yueying also nodded slightly, and entered her own paper shop, there was almost no decoration, and the papers were all placed behind the counter, which was really shabby.

But it is understandable that it opened in a hurry.

After about half an hour, Zhou Yang sent off today's group of guests, saluted Huang Yueying, and smiled when he saw Huang Yueying's appearance, "Xiaolang's outfit is really handsome." ”

"Uncle Zhou is polite." Huang Yueying smiled, "This time, I sent another 8,000 pieces of Chu paper, which were rushed out by the overtime of the recruited workers these days." It's December 20th, and it's the first five days of the year. In this way, on the 25th, the paper was sold out, a notice was posted, and the business was opened after the 15th day of the first lunar month, and I could go home later. ”

Zhou Yang breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "No, there are still more than 2,000 sheets in stock in the shop now, and together, there are 10,000 sheets, and if you sell them for five days, ...... them."

"It can sell 2,000 tickets a day, and the number of buyers can be opened up to 200." Huang Yueying said, "If Uncle Zhou wants to save more, then you can sell more every day." ”

"What Xiaolang said is that the villain also wants to spare one more day, after all, he is at the beginning of the year, and he also wants to bring some things back for his wife and daughter." Zhou Yang smiled.

"Okay, then sell these papers in three days, how much to sell every day, Uncle Zhou, you decide for yourself." Huang Yueying thought for a moment, "In the coming year, there should be no restrictions on sales." ”

"No."

After discussing, Huang Yueying and Zhou Yang looked at the two shops next to them, there was a lot of space, and there were two floors above and below, or in other words, the three shops sent by Cai Mao were actually two floors above and below.

In the center of Xiangyang City, there are three such shops, and Cai Mao is definitely interested.

Of course, later the Cai family also told her the reason, she was twelve years old, and in these families, there must be young people of the right age, more or less, these families want to marry her family.

It's a pity that the young people of these families are not as good as the one her old father picked later.

A medium piece of Chu paper costs five dollars a day, five hundred pieces a day, two thousand five hundred a day, twenty-five thousand a day, and seventy-five thousand a month......

This business is still done.

Of course, this is just the initial situation that has not been released, and when the follow-up production keeps up, there will be no such thing as selling 500 pieces a day, and then you will be able to negotiate with foreign banks for agents.

It's just that there are too few people in his own business, and there will be no old father in the clan at that time.
